EXCLUSIVE: New pics from moments before, after blasts
In the first picture you can see a bag next to a mailbox and up against a barricade along the marathon route. In the second, which we have blurred because it is very graphic, there is no sign of the bag. The viewer who took the pictures says there may be an hour or more between when the first and second pictures were taken.

We don't know if that bag had anything to do with the bomb.
Post Office boxes can even withstand small bombs that are inside them if I'm not mistaken. They are designed that way.
